# Nylas Email, Calendar & Contacts

Unified access to email, calendar, and contacts across Gmail, Outlook, Exchange, Yahoo, iCloud, and IMAP — powered by the Nylas API.

## Setup

Install the plugin (one command, no restart needed):

```bash
openclaw plugins install @nylas/openclaw-nylas-plugin
```

Configure your API key:

```bash
openclaw config set nylas.apiKey "YOUR_NYLAS_API_KEY"
```

Get your API key from [Nylas Dashboard](https://dashboard-v3.nylas.com).

Verify setup:

```bash
openclaw nylas status
openclaw nylas discover
```

- **nylas_read_message** — Read a specific message by ID (full content)
- **nylas_send_message** — Send an email (to, subject, body)
- **nylas_create_draft** — Create a draft for review before sending

## Multi-Account Support

The plugin auto-discovers all connected accounts from your API key. Use named grants to reference accounts:

- "What's on my **personal** calendar?" — resolves to your personal grant

## Examples

- "Show me unread emails from this week"
- "Send a reply to Sarah's last message"
- "What meetings do I have tomorrow?"
- "Schedule a 30-min call with the team on Thursday at 2pm"
- "Find Sarah Chen's email address"
- "Am I free Friday afternoon?"
- "Create a draft response to the budget proposal"
